Would you like to attract butterflies, bees and birds to your garden, but only have a small outdoor space? Even small spaces like courtyards and balconies can become attractive to a range of wildlife with just a little bit of planning.
Learn how to become a ‘Champion for Wildlife’ by incorporating food sources, water, shelter and nesting places in your garden for our indigenous animals. Pollinator species, like bees and butterflies, are of great conservation concern right now. They are declining across the globe due to factors such as intense farming, climate change, disease and changing land use, including urbanisation.However, urban areas can help support these species and this talk will show you how you can create your own biodiversity hotspot with minimal space.
What you will learn:
